If printed pictures would be accompanied with sound

21 August 2012 | Category: Interesting facts, Great Sound, Good Looks

One thing strikes me after reading architects and interior decoration magazines for several years.

On almost every picture displayed there is a neutral white smooth seamless ceiling.

This is no coincidence. The natural smooth seamless ceiling is chosen because it doesn’t interfere with what the designer believes to be important regardless of whether it is the furniture, the fabrics, the floor tiles etc. Look at the following examples picked from Pinterest:

Nice, aren’t they?

But what would have happened if printed pictures would be accompanied with sound?

The strive for large voluminous rooms with a lot of hard, reflecting materials like marble, wood and glass really give a hard, cold noisy environment. What looks adorable, will in fact sound horrible.

Now look at these pictures:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Basically the same idea. The ceiling is just supposed to be in the background while the interior decoration is the star, with one big exception. The ceilings in these two pictures are Fellert acoustical ceilings, meaning that it will sound just as nice at it looks!

My point is that everyone who designs in this direction should automatically consider to use a seamless acoustical ceiling, as it will complete the circle:

Good looks, great sound.
